A former Hamilton County corrections officer seen in a jail surveillance video shoving a 61-year-old man headfirst into a concrete wall has been charged by federal prosecutors and faces 10 years in prison.

Jason Mize, 31, has been indicted in U.S. District Court in Cincinnati on a charge of deprivation of rights under color of law. The FBI arrested him Thursday, according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

The incident happened in August 2016 and left Mark Myers, who was 61 at the time, with head injuries and a broken hip.

Last week, the county Board of Commissioners approved a settlement totaling half a million dollars for Myers. He had filed a federal lawsuit.

The settlement, itself, said Mize was being investigated by the U.S. Department of Justice for criminal civil rights violations.

Myers was arrested Aug. 20, 2016 after being accused of walking out of a Columbia Township Home Depot without paying for $120 in lighting and electrical equipment – a charge that ultimately resulted in an acquittal. He said there had been a computer error related to an online payment he’d already made.

According to the indictment, Myers was in the medical intake area, when Mize approached from behind and ordered him to stand.

Mize then pushed Myers toward a holding cell and shoved Myers, the indictment says, “with such force that (he) collided headfirst with a concrete wall.”

In documents filed as part of Myers’ lawsuit, attorneys for the county said that Myers was loud and disruptive. Mize, they said, escorted him to the holding cell that is specifically used to isolate disruptive inmates.

The lawsuit said Mize lied to his superiors in an attempt to hide what happened. Mize’s supervisor initially determined that the use of force complied with departmental policies. The matter was reviewed by others in the chain of command who requested an internal affairs investigation.

In the internal affairs report, former Maj. Charmaine McGuffey is quoted as saying, “Mize should be arrested or fired for his actions.”

The report concluded Mize “violated our standards which rise to the level of dishonesty and excessive force, along with other internal violations, and disciplinary action is required.”

Mize eventually resigned. He does not have an attorney listed in court records.
